Description

Ready-made opponents

The appeal of this set is simple: two ships from opposite sides, ready to fight as soon as they are built. The TIE fighter is the Empire's fast, agile and expendable workhorse, while the Y-wing is the Rebel Alliance's tough, heavily armed bomber. They clash during the attack on the Death Star in A New Hope. With three minifigures to fly them, you can stage a dogfight or a chase straight away, with no need to buy a second set.

Two very different builds

The 415 pieces, spread across 119 part designs, go into two models with little in common. The TIE fighter centres on its round cockpit and broad wing panels, while the Y-wing is long and narrow, with twin engine nacelles and exposed machinery. Switching from one to the other keeps the build fresh. It also makes the set a good fit for younger builders who prefer two smaller models to one large project, and for adults who like to display a matching pair.

The 2004 greys

This pairing appeared in the Star Wars range more than once. The 2004 version uses light and dark bluish grey, along with black and blue, rather than the older greys of earlier releases. The difference is obvious if you place versions side by side, and it is one of the things that make collecting these sets interesting. The bluish greys also match newer parts, which helps if you plan to reuse the bricks in modern builds.

Keeping two ships complete

With two models in one set, parts can easily end up in the wrong place. The complete inventory below lists everything in set 7262 by colour and quantity, so checking a used copy is straightforward. If both ships are already on your shelf, the What can I build? tool shows which other sets your parts could complete, together with the pieces still needed, so the fighters can go on to become something different once the battle is over.
